FRIDAY, ROBBIE Snow racked up his second straight shutout by throwing a three-hitter over visiting Pacific University. The righthander paced Oregon to its 5-0 victory by fanning 15 batters and retiring the last 19 to face j him. The Ducks host Linftetd in two ! twin bills Monday and Tuesday, ; beginning at 1:30. Kirsch plans to ' start Don Doerr and Thatch Mc Leod on the mound. Both pitch ers hold 10 records Jansen fired a three-hitter in WOtL Campos / (A wth Moc^hohan Author of “/ H'ua a Teen-age Dwarf”, “The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis”, etc.) AMONG MY KINFOLK My favorite cousin, Mandolin Cilel>e, a sweft, unspoiled country boy, lias just started college. Today I got a letter from him which I will reprint here because 1 know Mandolin’s problems are >o much like your own. Mandolin writes: Dear Mandolin (he thinks my name is Mandolin too), I see by the college paper that you are writing a column for Marlboro Cigarettes. I think MarlUmis are jim-dandy cig arettes with real nice tobacco and a ginger-peachy filter, and I want to tell you why I don’t smoke them. It all started the very first day I arrived at college. I was walking across the campus, swinging my pajjer valise and sing ing traditional airs like Blue Tail Fly and Death and Trans figuration, when all of a sudden I ran into this here collegiate looking fellow with a monogram on his breast pocket. He asked me was I a freshman. I said yes. He asked me did I want to be a BMOC and the envy of all the in crowd. I said yes. He said the only way to make these keen things happen was to join a fraternity. Fortunately he hapj>ened to have a pledge card with him, so he pricked my thumb and I signed. He didn't tell me the name of the fraternity or where it is located, but I sup |*j>e I'll find out when I go active. is ^ Zfeflnkdme it) <3 due ftfixft rtftdUtdKf Meanwhile this fellow comes around every week to collect the dues, which are $100, plus a $10 fine for missing the weekly meeting, plus a So assessment to buy a headstone for Spot, the Late, beloved beagle who was the fraternity mascot. I have never regretted joining the fraternity, because it is my dearest wish to be a BMOC and the envy of all the in crowd, but you can see that it is not cheap. It wouldn’t l>e so bad if I slept at the frat house, but you must agree that I can’t sleep at the house if I don’t know where the house is. I have rented a room which is not only grotesquely expen sive, but it is not at all the kind of room I was looking for. I wanted someplace reasonably priced, clean, comfortable, and within easy walking distance of classes, the shopping district, and San Francisco and New York. What I found was.a bedroom in the home of a local costermonger which is dingy, expensive, aiid uncomfortable—and I don’t even get to use the bed till 7 a.rri. when my landlord goes out to mong his costers. Well anyhow, I got settled and the next thing I did, naturally, was to look for a girl. And I found her. Harriet, her name is, a beautiful creature standing just under seven feet high and weigh ing 385 pounds. I first spied her leaning against the statue of the Founder, dozing lightly. I talked to her for several hours w thout effect. Only when I mentioned dinner did she stir. Her milky little eyes opened, she raised a brawny arm, seized my no ye, and curried me to a chic French restaurant called Le C ijjjoint where she consumed, according to my calculations, her own weight in Chateaubriand. After dinner she lapsed into a torpor from which I could not rouse her, no matter how I tried. I hanged my glass with a fork, I pinched her great pendulous jowls, I rubbed the legs of mv corduroy pants together. But nothing worked, and finally I slang her over my shoulder and carried her to the girls dorm, slipping several discs in the process. Fortunately, medical care for students is provided free at the college infirmary. All I had to pay for were a few extras, like X-rays, anaesthesia, forceps, hemostats, scalpels, catgut, linen, towels, amortization, and nurses. They would not, however, let me keep the nurses. So, dear cousin, it is lack of funds, not lack of enthusiasm, that is keeping me from Marlboro Cigarettes—dear, good Marlboros with their fine blend of clioice tobaccos and their pure white Selectrate filter and their soft pack and their flip top box. Well, I must close now. My pencil is wore out and I can't afford another. Keep ’em flying. Yr. cousin Mandolin Glebe © 1963 Max Stiulmaa * * * The hearts of the makers of Marlboro go out to poor Man dolin—and to poor anyone else who is missing out on our fine cigarettes—available in all 50 of these United States. Saturday’s opener, staving off a Bearcat second inning rally. Left fielder Don Banderas preserved the shutout in the fourth frame with a spectacular catch at the fence, preventing Jiggs Burnett’s potential home run. THE WINNERS scored their run with two outs in the second after Eric Hardin smashed a triple into right center and came home on a passed ball Ager chalked up 17 strikeouts and allowed only two hits in re cording his 5-1 win. The Ducks were working on a streak of 28 innings without allowing a run but had it broken up in the sixth by pinch-hitter Jan Lockman who slammed the first pitch over the centerfield fence. Lockman’s four-bagger knotted the score at 1-1, as Oregon drew first blood in the fourth. John Livingston walked, stole second and came in on Fred Pettengill’s single. OREGON CINCHED the win in its half of the sixth with Petten gill's pop bunt over the pitcher’s head, opening the action A dou ble by Ed Vetter sent Pettengill to third, and both scored on 11 D. Murphy's line drive single into .‘enter. Two outs later. Terry Leininger walked; a passed ball brought in Murphy and advanced Leininger who kept going to third on an error. He tallied on a single by Jeff Allen ‘o end the scoring. Soccer Team Bows In Opening Game The University of Portland soc cer team, champs of the Portland league, spoiled Oregon’s '903 soccer debut Saturday with a 5-2 win over the Ducks However, the score was hardly an indication of the play. Except for two defensive lapses the Oregon squad, which was play ing its first game as a team, play ed soccer on a par with the Pilots. OREGON SCORED at six min utes when inside right Steve Peris volleyed a throw in past the goalie. Portland struck back for two quick goals at 20 and 22 min utes The Ducks settled down again and there was no more scoring until 21 minutes into the second half. At that time, Oregon’s outside left John Crimly fired a shot from 20 yards out. The ball hit the far goal post and rebounded over the line to tie the score. Portland regained the lead four minutes later on a corner kick. Portland will host the Ducks on April 20 in a return match. TAD • McCALL SOPH. CLASS SENATOR A Buck’s Worth By JOHN BUCHNER Emerald SporlB Editor There will be a family reunion on Howe Field Monday afternoon i THE RELATIVES are Uncle! Roy Helser and Nephew Don Kirsch However, family ties will be laid aside for a couple of days. The reason—Uncle Roy is the head baseball coach of Linlleld’s Wildcats and Nephew Don han dles the same chores for the Web foots. The two teams will play both Monday and Tuesday. Kingpins of NWC Helser’s Wildcats, kingpins of the Northwest Conference, will be seeking to halt Oregon’s ten game win streak LINFIELD INVADES with the distinction of being the only Pa cific coast team to beat Oregon State's fifth ranked Beavers. In fact, they beat ’em twice in a row. Unfortunately for the 'Cats, Frosh Trackmen Record Victory With Gordy Payne and Ken Moore setting Frosh records. Ore gon's Duckling thinclads easily dominated an all comers meet in Corvallis Friday. Payne opened up with his 1 >ng stride and won the 440 in 48 2 to establish his record. MOORE WAS timed in 9:13 2 for the two-mile in setting his mark He led all the way and wa-. over 19 seconds ahead of his nearest challenger at the finish Payne was by far the outstand ing performer in the meet In his record-setting quarter-mile effort the South Eugene graduate out distanced former Oregon and Canadian Olympic team member Sig Ohleman by 12 yards He then came back to take the 220 in 22 2, and run a 48 1 anchor lap for the victorious Frosh mile relay team The tall, sandy-haired young man made up a ten-yard deficit with that anchor leg to give the Ducklings a win over OSU’s Rooks THE TIME for the mile relay was 3 208, which was also be lieved to be a Frosh record, but as yet has not been confirmed Running with Payne were Ken Bauman. Scott Knox, and Jim Soland Bob Woodall led a one two three sweep for the Ducklings in the broad jump with a leap of 21'214’’- Dan McGuire was second with 20’5bj”, and John Builer was third with 20’5'4”. Another sweep came in the high hurdles, with Marcial Hunter leading the way in 15.1 Second was Builer in 15.6 and third was Paul Cope in 16.1. OREGON’S YEARLINGS also finished one two in the 220 Payne was the winner, and was followed by John Warrington in 22 4. Other victors for the Frosh were Bob McCoy in the pole vault (13’6”), John Franz in the high jump (6’2”), Builer in the 330 yard intermediate hurdles (40.0), and Gary Helseth in the javelin (175’5'/z”). the Heavers returned the favor over the weekend The Linfielders, according to Kirsch, feature two fine hurlors in Tom Younker and Eddie Cecil. These two will probably not see action until Tuesday because they pitched Saturday at Corvallis.

Linfield, after a 14 1 league rec ord last season, was emharras-.i-d by Portland State in a district championship series that decided the western entry in the national small college tournament PSC WENT on to finish second in the national tournament finals The ’Cats are anxious to re deem themselves in the eyes of national small college baseball critics. And with a twin hill vic tory over Oregon State, the small college crew could be well on their way to higher things Even though the Ducks will b favored, the Wildcats would like nothing better than to add a "Duck" feather to their pre league list of victims.
